export, or re-export of the Licensed Software, in whole or in part in violation
of the import or export control laws or regulations of the United States or any

5  LICENSE AND SUPPORT SERVICES FEES
Licensee will pay Portal the license, services and Support Services fees as set
forth on Schedule A and in each applicable Order.

6  PAYMENTS AND TAXES
6.1  Invoices for amounts due under this Agreement shall be due and payable on
the date set forth in Schedule A or relevant Order(s). If no date is stated,
payment shall be due thirty (30) calendar days from Licensee's receipt of
invoice.

6.2  All payments due under this Agreement shall be made in U.S. dollars. In
addition to any remedies Portal may have hereunder or at law, any payments more
than thirty (30) days overdue will bear a late payment fee of 1.5% per month
commencing from the payment due date. If the foregoing would not be enforceable
under applicable law, then the applicable late payment fee shall be an amount
equal to the maximum rate allowed by law, accruing from the payment due date.

6.3  Portal may suspend or terminate Support Services for non-payment continuing
for more than fifteen (15) calendar days after Licensee's receipt of a written
notice from Portal informing of the failure to pay when due. Portal shall have
no liability for damages sustained by Licensee resulting from such termination
or suspension of Support Services pursuant to this Section 6.3.

6.4  The amounts set forth in this Agreement and all Orders hereunder are
exclusive of all taxes (including without limitation, value added taxes and
withholding taxes), tariffs, duties and the like. If Portal is required to pay
any sales, use, value-added, withholding or other tax, tariff, duty, etc.,
(other than taxes on Portal's net income) on the licenses or services provided
pursuant to this Agreement or pertaining to Licensee's use of the Licensed
Software, then such taxes shall be billed to and paid by Licensee.

7  SUPPORT SERVICES
Provided Licensee has paid the applicable Support Services fees, Portal,
directly or through or its authorized agent, shall provide Licensee with
technical support services in accordance with the Support Services plan
purchased by Licensee as set forth on Schedule A. Portal reserves the right to
modify its Support Services plans any time. Portal will notify Licensee in
writing of any material modifications to Portal's Support Services plans.
Licensee shall designate one primary technical support liaison and one backup
technical support liaison who will be permitted to contact Portal during
applicable technical support services hours. Portal will support each Major
Release of the Licensed Software for at least eighteen (18) months from its
initial  commercial release ("Support Term"). Portal shall have no obligation to
support (i) Licensed Software which has been damaged due to Licensee's
negligence, abuse, or misapplication, (ii) Licensed Software which has been
modified or altered in a manner not expressly authorized by Portal, (iii)
problems caused by use of the Licensed Software other than in accordance with
the Documentation, or (iv) Licensed Software installed in an operating
environment or hardware platform other than that for which it has been designed
as set forth in the applicable Documentation. Licensee will reasonably cooperate
with Portal in the resolution of support issues and, upon Portal's request and
during normal business hours, shall provide Portal with remote access to the
equipment on which the Licensed Software is installed and/or operating. Portal
will abide by Licensee's security policies and procedures and will only use such
remote access to provide Support Services for the Licensed Software. Licensee
understands that failure to provide Portal with such remote access may result in
delayed resolution of Support Services issues. If Licensee fails to provide
Portal with the above described remote access, Portal shall have no liability
for damages arising from delays which could reasonably have been avoided had
Licensee provided Portal with above-described dial-in access. Unless cancelled
by Licensee at least sixty (60) days prior to the termination of the then
current annual Support Services term, Support Services for supported products
will automatically renew at the same support level (if available) unless
terminated by Licensee or Portal as permitted under this Agreement.

8  CONSULTING SERVICES
Subject to payment of the applicable fees, Portal will provide Licensee with the
Support Services, training services and technical account management ("TAM")
services set forth on Schedule A. Additionally, Portal may from time to time
provide Licensed Software implementation or other professional consulting
services agreed to by both parties ("Consulting Services"). Prior to the
scheduling of such Consulting Services, Licensee and Portal will enter into a
Professional Services Agreement separate from this Agreement. Unless otherwise
agreed in writing, all Consulting Services will be billed on a time and
materials basis. Consulting Services are bid separately from the Licensed
Software licenses, and Licensee may acquire either Licensed Software licenses or
Consulting Services without acquiring the other.

9  RESTRICTED RELEASES
If Licensee is selected for participation and elects to participate in a
Restricted Release program, Licensee agrees (i) Portal shall have no obligation
to correct errors in or deliver updates to the Restricted Release, (ii) Portal
shall have no obligation to support the Restricted Release, (iii) Licensee will
provide Portal with appropriate test data for the Restricted Release if
necessary to resolve problems in the Restricted Release encountered by Licensee
and will promptly report to Portal any error discovered in the Restricted
Release, (iv) the Restricted Release is experimental, may contain problems and
errors and is being provided to Licensee on an "AS-IS" basis with no warranty of
any kind, express or implied, (v) neither party will be responsible to the other
for any losses, claims or damages of whatever nature, arising out of or in
connection with the performance or nonperformance of the Restricted Release,
(vi) Licensee will not use the Restricted Release in production applications
without the prior written approval of Portal, and (vii) Licensee will stop using
and return or destroy any Restricted Release promptly upon Portal's request.

10  TERMINATION
Portal may terminate a license to a Licensed Software product if Licensee fails
to pay the license fee therefor within fifteen (15) calendar days after written
notice from Portal that payment is past due. Either party may terminate this
Agreement if the other party breaches a material term of this Agreement and
fails to cure such breach within sixty (60) calendar days after receipt of
written notice describing the breach in reasonable detail. Upon termination of
this Agreement, all licenses granted hereunder shall immediately terminate,
Licensee shall immediately cease using the Licensed Software and Documentation
and Licensee shall certify in writing to Portal that all copies (in any form or
media) have been destroyed or returned to Portal. Termination shall not relieve
Licensee from paying all amounts accrued under this Agreement prior to
termination and shall not limit either party from pursuing any other available
remedies. Sections 4, 5,

                                                                    Page 2 of 10
<PAGE>

6, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15.1, 17, 18 and 19 shall survive termination or expiration
of this Agreement.

11  INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY
Portal at its own expense shall (i) defend or at its option settle, any claim or
suit against Licensee on the basis of infringement of any trademark, copyright,
trade secret or United States patent ("Intellectual Property Rights") by the
Licensed Software or permitted use thereof, and (ii) pay any final judgment
entered against Licensee on such issue or any settlement thereof, provided (a)
Portal has sole control of the defense and/or settlement, (b) Licensee notifies
Portal promptly in writing of each such claim or suit and gives Portal all
information known to Licensee relating thereto, and (c) Licensee cooperates with
Portal in the settlement and/or defense. (Licensee shall be reimbursed for all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing any cooperation
requested by Portal.) If all or any portion of the Licensed Software is, or in
the opinion of Portal may become, the subject for any claim or suit for
infringement of any Intellectual Property Rights, Portal may, and in the event
of any adjudication that the Licensed Software or any part thereof does infringe
or if the permitted use of the Licensed Software or any part thereof is
enjoined, Portal shall, at its expense do one of the following things: (1)
procure for Licensee the right to use the Licensed Software or the affected part
thereof; (2) replace the Licensed Software or affected part with other suitable
programs; (3) modify the Licensed Software or affected part to make it non-
infringing; or (4) if Portal reasonably determines that none of the foregoing
remedies are commercially feasible, refund the aggregate payments made by
Licensee for the Licensed Software or affected part thereof. Portal shall have
no obligations under this Section 11 to the extent a claim is based upon (A) the
use of any version of the Licensed Software other than a current, unaltered
version provided by Portal, if infringement would have been avoided by a current
unaltered version; or (B) combination, operation or use of the Licensed Software
with software and/or hardware not delivered by Portal if such infringement could
have been avoided by combination, operation or use of the Licensed Software with
other software and/or hardware. This Section 11 states the entire liability of
Portal and the exclusive remedy of Licensee with respect to any alleged
infringement by the Licensed Software or any part thereof.

12  WARRANTY
12.1  For ninety (90) calendar days from the Effective Date of this Agreement
("Warranty Period") Portal warrants that the Licensed Software when properly
used will operate in all material respects with its Documentation. If Licensee
provides Portal with written notice during the Warranty Period that the Licensed
Software fails to operate as warranted in this Section 12.1, Portal will use
reasonable efforts to cure the defect and make the Licensed Software operate as
herein warranted. Licensee's sole remedy in the event of breach by Portal of
this Section 12.1 shall be (i) replacement of the defective Licensed Software
program or defective portion thereof or (ii) termination of the license for the
nonconforming Licensed Software product and refund of the license fees paid
therefor. Portal shall have no obligations under this Section 12.1 to the extent
noncompliance results from (a) modification of the Licensed Software not
authorized by Portal, or (b) use of the Licensed Software for a purpose or in a
manner other than that for which it was designed. This Section 12.1 states
Portal's entire liability and Licensee's exclusive remedy with respect to any
breach by Portal of this Section 12.1.

12.2  Portal warrants that any services (including without limitation TAM,
training, implementation workshop or Support Services) performed under this
Agreement will be performed in a professional workmanlike manner consistent with
industry practices.

13  WARRANTY DISCLAIMER
EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 11 AND 12 ABOVE, PORTAL AND ITS
LICENSORS MAKE NO WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY REGARDING
OR RELATING TO THE LICENSED SOFTWARE OR THE DOCUMENTATION, OR ANY MATERIALS OR
SERVICES FURNISHED OR PROVIDED TO LICENSEE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. SPECIFICALLY,
PORTAL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE LICENSED SOFTWARE WILL BE ERROR FREE OR WILL
PERFORM IN AN UNINTERRUPTED MANNER. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, PORTAL
SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF SATISFACTORY QUALITY,
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE (EVEN IF PORTAL HAD BEEN
INFORMED OF SUCH PURPOSE) WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED SOFTWARE, DOCUMENTATION
AND SERVICES AND WITH RESPECT TO THE USE OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING.

14  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
14.1  IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF
REVENUES OR PROFITS, LOSS OF USE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF DATA, WHETHER
IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EACH PARTY AGREES TO TAKE REASONABLE ACTION TO
MITIGATE ITS DAMAGES. LICENSEE AGREES TO REGULARLY BACK UP ITS DATABASE(S) IN
ACCORDANCE WITH REASONABLE INDUSTRY PRACTICES.

14.2  EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF A BREACH OF SECTION 4 (LICENSE RESTRICTIONS), 11
(INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY) OR 17 (CONFIDENTIALITY) NEITHER PARTY'S OR ITS
LICENSORS' LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES SHALL EXCEED AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE TOTAL
FEES PAID AND OWED TO PORTAL UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

15.1  Licensee shall keep and maintain full, accurate and detailed records
regarding its payment obligations, the licenses granted under this Agreement and
the number and types of Subscribers in the Licensed Software Database and/or the
number of CDRs processed. Portal may, at its expense, no more than once per
year, and on thirty (30) days prior written notice, audit Licensee's use of the
Licensed Software and compliance with this Agreement. Any such audits shall
occur during normal business hours and shall not unreasonably interfere with
Licensee's business operations. If any such audit reveals a deficiency in any
amounts due to Portal hereunder, Licensee will be invoiced for such underpaid
fees based on the Price List in effect at the time the audit is completed. If
the underpaid fees exceed five percent (5%) of the license fees paid, then
Licensee shall also pay Portal's reasonable costs of conducting the audit.
Audits shall be conducted no more than once annually.

15.2  Commencing ninety (90) calendar days from each applicable Licensed
Software Delivery Date, Licensee will provide Portal with quarterly reports
("License Compliance Reports") setting forth (i) the total numbers and types of
Subscribers in the Licensed Software Database and the number of CDRs processed
by the Licensed Software, (ii) a statement of any additional license and Support
Services fees owed to Portal and a reasonable summary of how such amounts were
calculated, and (iii) the then-current addresses of all locations where the

or in part, including by way of merger, acquisition or sale of all or
substantially all of the assets in one or more related transactions, without
Portal's prior written consent.

to it, without restriction, prior to disclosure by disclosing party, (c) was
properly

                                                                    Page 3 of 10
<PAGE>

disclosed to it, without restriction, by another person with the legal
authority to do so, (d) is independently developed by receiving party without
use of or reference to disclosing party's Confidential Information or (e) is
required to be disclosed pursuant to a judicial or legislative order or
proceeding; provided that, to the extent permitted by and practical under the
circumstances, receiving party provides to disclosing party prior notice of the
intended disclosure and an opportunity to respond or object to the disclosure or
if prior notice is not permitted or practical under the circumstances, prompt
notice of such disclosure. In the event of actual or threatened breach of the
provisions of Section 4 or Section 17, the non-breaching party will be entitled

19  MISCELLANEOUS
19.1  Neither party will incur any liability to the other on account of any loss
or damage resulting from any delay or failure to perform all or any part of this

occurrences, or causes beyond its control and without negligence of the parties.
Such events, occurrences or causes will include, without limitation, acts of
God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, earthquakes, fire and explosions,
but the ability to meet financial obligations is expressly excluded.

19.2  Any waiver of the provisions of this Agreement or of a party's rights or
remedies under this Agreement must be in writing to be effective.  Failure,
neglect or delay by a party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or its
rights or remedies at any time will not be construed to be deemed a waiver of
such party's rights under this Agreement and will not in any way affect the
validity of the whole or any part of this Agreement or prejudice such party's
right to take subsequent action.

19.3  If any term, condition or provision in this Agreement is found to be
invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, the parties shall endeavor in
good faith to agree to such amendments that will preserve, as far as possible,
the intentions expressed in this Agreement. If the parties fail to agree on such
an amendment, such invalid term, condition or provision will be severed from the
remaining terms, conditions and provisions, which will continue to be valid and
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

19.4  This Agreement (including the Schedules and any addenda hereto signed by
both parties) contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the
subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all previous communications,
representations, understandings and agreements, either oral or written, between
the parties with respect to said subject matter. No employee, agent,
representative or affiliate of Portal has authority to bind Portal to any oral
representations or warranty concerning the Licensed Software. Any written
representation or warranty not expressly contained in this Agreement is
unenforceable.

19.5  No terms, provisions or conditions of any purchase order, acknowledgement
or other business form that Licensee may use in connection with the acquisition
or licensing of the Licensed Software will have any effect on the rights, duties
or obligations of the parties under, or otherwise modify, this Agreement,
regardless of any failure of Portal to object to such terms, provisions, or
conditions.

19.6  The parties agree to reasonably cooperate in joint marketing  and public
relations activities including without limitation the issuance of a joint press
release announcing Licensee's selection of the Portal solution and participation
in Portal's Success Stories program. Licensee's public relations personnel will
have an opportunity to review and approve the final draft of any joint public
relations materials before distribution to the press. Following successful
implementation of the Licensed Software and at Portal's request, Portal shall be
permitted to conduct a brief telephone interview (not to exceed thirty minutes
without Licensee's consent)  with a senior-level spokesperson within Licensee's
organization involved with the implementation of the Portal solution. Portal may
write and publish a high-level success story profile based on the interview and
discussing the reasons supporting Licensee's choice of the Portal solution and
the benefits realized by Licensee. Licensee shall have final approval over the
final content of such literature prior to initial distribution by Portal. Except
as provided in this Agreement, neither party will engage in joint public
relations activities without the prior written consent of the other party, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

19.7  Licensee agrees to be a reference account for Portal and will, at Portal's
request, participate in at least four (4) telephone reference inquiries per year
and at least one (1) onsite visit per year provided that Portal shall give
Licensee reasonable advance notice of not less than (i) 48 hours in the case of
a telephone reference visit and (ii) 7 days in the case of an onsite visit.
Further, Portal shall be permitted to identify Licensee as a customer so long as
such use does not imply endorsement.

19.8  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which so executed
will be deemed to be an original and such counterparts together will constitute
one and the same Agreement.

19.9  Portal is an independent contractor; nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to create a partnership, joint venture or agency relationship between
the parties.

19.10  If this license is acquired under a U. S. Government contract, use,
duplication or disclosure by the U. S. Government is subject to restrictions set
forth in FAR subparagraphs 52.227-19(a)-(d) for civilian agency contracts and
DFARS 252.227-7013(c)(ii) for Department of Defense contracts. Portal reserves
all unpublished rights under United States copyright laws.

19.11  In the event that this Agreement or the licenses granted hereunder should
ever become subject to US bankruptcy proceedings, all rights and licenses
